General 3D Airborne Antenna Radiation Pattern Code Users Manual.

Abstract

This report describes a computer program and how it may be used to analyze the performance antennas mounted on aircraft. The computer program may also be used to simulate a wide variety of complex electromagnetic radiation problems using the spheroid/plates model. The computer program is based upon the uniform Geometric Theory of Diffraction and various computed patterns are compared with experimental results in the report. The organization of the computer program code, definition of input and output data, and examples for simulating antenna performance on different airframes are also presented. (Author)
